Cleveland Indians fireman Andrew Miller blew a save against the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday after he entered attempting to preserve a one-run lead, yet departed with the Indians facing a two-run deficit.
Not even a full day later, the Indians have placed Miller on the disabled list due to right knee soreness:

It's worth noting Miller has been a little wilder as of late. Over his past 10 appearances, he has issued five walks and hit two batters in 11 2/3 innings. Miller's ability to limit contact has rendered his sloppy geography irrelevant, but it's fair to wonder if his knee has been acting up for a while.
The Indians entered Wednesday two games up over the Kansas City Royals in the American League Central.
